Profile:
One of many players given an opportunity on the 1982/83 series of
New Zealand it proved to be Goonasekera's only international
series. Against a high class New Zealand pace attack featuring
Sir Richard Hadlee, Cairns, Chatfield and Snedden he had a torrid
time although his scores did improve each innings. Goonasekera's
notable achievement was snaring four catches in the first innings
of the second Test at Wellington, a record effort by a Sri Lankan
equaled by Hashan Tillekeratne a decade later. The left handed
batsman had an improved series in the one day encounters though
it was not enough to convince the selectors to persevere with
him.
(Johann P Jayasekera , Sep 1999)
